I think a little clarification is needed. No. I don’t actually think everyone there is insane. I don’t care about the bans so stop trying to use that. HB enthusiasts coming here and trying to call me out achieves nothing besides proving my point

Edit: Feel free to keep trying to brigade me. It’s not going to scare me to take this down

      Anarchists only exist to the degree their privilege allows them to feel like they have no need for any sort of authority.

      I’m sure there are some there though, as long and they bring the right flavor of kool aid

        How are you defining authority? My understanding is it’s specifically referring to “power over”; via implicit/explicit coercion, threat, manipulation, and so on. I don’t see why opposition to such uses of power, and the desire to build alternative systems which don’t rely on such means, has to be a negative or “naive” or “unrealistic” thing.

      Contrary to the other guy’s made up assertions - yes, Hexbear has many anarchists, and they are explicitly welcomed as there’s a heavy focus on left unity over purity.
